Told Without
Varnish by Ben Long
Well-Meaning Friends
TW-0 incidents in widely separated
localities .recently prove that it
is possible to carry congratulations too far. A blushing bride in
Michigan received such a barrage of
i-ice from loving friends that the
sight of one eye was destroyed. In
Texas a bridegroom hopped into his
car beside his bride to be driven to
the railroad station where the happy
couple were to embark on their honeymoon.
A well-wishing* friend threw an old
shoe. It hit the bridegroom on the
head, and instead of driving to the
station he drove into the nearest
telephone pole and in the smashup
received a broken leg.
t ■ t t
HEN it comes to giving send-offs
to newly married couples this
nation leads 'the "civilized" world.
In some countries, 'they tell me, the
guests are "a little rough at times,"
but as we call them savages we expect them to be rough.
. In this grand "arid glorious "land we
leave nothing undone to show that
we wish our :newly-weds a life of
joy. Of course a bride who has had
her eyesight 'destroyed with rice will
find difficulty in appreciating the good
intentions of "her friends.
The bridegroom who starts on his
matrimonial venture in a hospital did
not contemplate "doing so before he
got married.
However, ;they should not forget
the loving spirit in which the rice
and the oKl shoe were tendered. The
wedding guests meant well.
Which reminds me of ' the remark
made by Steve Brodie, the bridge
jumper, after he had lost a large
amount of money backing Peter
Maher to defeat "Bob "Fitzsimmons for
the championship, "God save me from
well-meaning friends."

Free ^Publicity
YESTERTOAiY :in glancing over a
daily published in Ohio I counted
24 NE.w'Yo'rk'city datelines, yet
22 of them had reference to news and
sports in cities far removed from
Gotham. Ifew' York, however, grabbed
the publicity without paying one cent
for it.
National committees of the major
political parties expect a city to raise
at least $lb"0",000 "-for the privilege of
getting :a convention. The return to
the city is'hi the-datelines, although
some people think the reward is in
money spent'in-stores.
Hotels, cigar stands, barber shops
and restaurants secure the- lion's
share of 'the -cash delegates and
visitors talce • with them to a national
convention. "The stores little or
nothing.
t it
Many yaars ago when' I was news
editor of a 'large afternoon newspaper
in Philadelphia the dateline, "New
York," was -never perriiitted in the
paper unless'the-news-actually occurred in She-city of "New" York. In
those days press associations dated
everything ""New" YorkJ" even though
the episodes -happened in a city or
town 75 miles from the metropolis.
Evidently the ■•same rule is still in
force judging "from the number of
New York datelines in the dailies.
Here is a sample: "New York, June
3—Many buildings were threatened
by fire in Newark,- N. "J., this morning."
Newark is a 'large city, 15 miles
from New York,-, in a ■ nearby state,
yet it is treated with contempt by the
press association-and not even granted
the privilege of ra dateline.
Managing editors and-news editors
are responsible for dateline chiseling
valued at a million dollars a year. A
word from one of the above mentioned
editors to the chief of the < copy desk
would end for all time a grave injustice to cities in "New. Work, Connecticut and New Jersey.
"THE OTHER FELLOW BAN ON FREE SPACE
IS A HUMAN BEING"
So He Is Entitled To Consideration, Declares the Rev. N. B.
Emch In An Able After-Dinner Address Before Members
of -North Canton Rotary.
TRY A LITTLE KINDNESS
Thursday being Memorial day there
was no meeting of the Rotary cluh.
The next meeting will be tomorrow
evening, June 6, at 6:30.
The after-dinner speaker on Thursday evening, May 23, was the Rev.
Norman B. Emch, pastor of Zion
Lutheran church, North Canton. After
saying that "it is a great privilege
to have this opportunity of being witli
you, my first," he remarked that he
noticed several physicians present.
Then he told a little story: A physician called on a patient with a weak
heart.
"How are you feeling today ?"
"Not very good, doctor; it is my
breathing."
"O," said the medical man -cheerfully, "I'll give you something to
stop that." (Laughter).
"If I notice any of the medical
men present becoming restless I'll
know it is time to stop before they
stop me." \
"The Other Fellow"'
The title of Mr. Emeu's address
was "The Other Fellow.7' Some ol
the high spots follow: "'Water, we
know, runs down hill, but love runs
up hill. In one of George "McDonald's
books is Gerald, a handsome little invalid boy. One day as he sat by the
window delighting himself with "the
sight of a lovely sunset, le exclaimed:
"O, mother, I would like to help God
paint the sky."
"My darling," said the mother, :as
she clasped him to her heart, "you are
helping God paint the -sky, for .you
make the sky of my life very bright
each day." The little boy's heart was
filled with gladness.
Lighten Suffering
It is our glorious privilege to help
God paint the sky that hangs over
the lives of men and women we meet
each day. Cicero said that our duty
is not to share the sufferings of
others, but to lighten 'them as. much
as possible.

Retain Their Appetites While'On Way
To Washington.
Special to The 'Sun
Philadelphia, Pa. — North Canton
high school seniors entered this town
in automobiles on Monday evening.
The first question asked \was not
"Where is Independence hall - arid the
Liberty bell?" but "When-and where
do we eat?" Thus proving'that even
the patriotic instinct is forgotten
until the inner man is -appeased.
And did they eat? Anil'do they eat?
Exclamation . points instead of question marks will answer the interrogations.
"Dat's the eatenist crowd dis.child
has waited on fer a -long time';" remarked one of the waiters, from
which it will be seen that all restaurants in the Quaker City are-not
controlled by Greeks.
All in tip-top condition. Tomorrow
the tourists will visit Independence
hall and see not only the cracked
Liberty bell but the room where sat
the men to whom we owe -our freedom as a nation.
Ben Franklin's resting place and
the Betsy Ross house on Arch street
and other spots dear to the hearts
of all patriotic Americans will be
visited tomorrow. Then on toward
Washington.

party are: Principal Melvin R. Bixler,

"THEYMADEMD"
William Steele and Joseph Hoover
Win Honors At A-cadeiny.
A dispatch to The Sun from' the
officials of Culver Military Academy,
Culver, Ind., contains -hews residents
of this town and its vicinity like to
read when young men and young
women go from here and "make
good." Here it is, exactly as received:
William W. Steele, Jr., :son of.Mr.
and Mrs. W. W. Steele, and ..Joseph
S. Hoover, son of Mrs. D. P. :Hoover
of 210 West Summit street, North
Canton, were graduated from Culver
Military academy with nigh 'honors
on June 5.

a class of more than a hundred, who
were elected to membership in the
Cum Laude, national honorary scholarship society. He was secretary of the
Hop club and a member of tiie-Cadet
club.
Both boys were cadet captains and
were awarded medals for efficiency
as mounted service officers.
As The Sun Sees It
Without Prejudice
Wheeler-Rayburn Bill
HOME-WEEK DISPLAY
ATTRACTING PEOPLE
T
HE SUN sees no reason why it
should go into ecstasies over the
Wheeler-Rayburn bill now before
the upper branch of congress. As a
matter of fact this newspaper seldom
develops a temperature over anything
these days because it believes that
many politicians masquerading as
"liberal statesmen" are more interested in holding their jobs by appealing
to the passions of radicals than they
arc in protecting the dear public from
the voracious appetite of public
utilities.
On the other hand, we find "extreme conservatives" irrigating their
cheeks with salty tears over the future of the nation. As such fellows
are "agin everything" and have no
constructive plans to offer their shudders are not taken seriously by thinking men and women. Like the extreme
radical, the extreme conservative
puts his own selfish interests first and
thus damages the cause he espouses.
That all public utilities are conducted by simon-pure saints no one is
silly enough to believe, neither are
ALL public utilities conducted by
crooks. If such were the case this
nation would blow up.
Some men engaged in banking are
not trustworthy, but who is brash
enough to say that all bankers are
thieves because a few of them misappropriate money entrusted to their
care?
The reason The Sun believes the
Wheeler-T-Jayburn bill is dynamite lies
in the fact that it is too sweeping; it
does not discriminate between right
and' wrong. Tn plain words, the bill
in its present form brands and damns
EVERY public utility. There is no
justice in such an attitude.
Take North Canton as an example:
Several times during the past twelve
years The Ohio Power company and
The East Ohio Gas company have
reduced prices to the consumer. Their
representatives and the mayor and
members of council met in a friendly
public session and this town benefited.
It is well to keep in mind that a
number of persons residing in Tho
Sun's district own stock in the above
companies and that if these companies
are crippled or put out of business
the stockholders are the ones to suffer,
not the "reformers" or municipal
ownership advocates. It is worth remembering that too much federal or
state domination of local business is
no doubt good for the politicians and
their henchmen, but bad, very bad,
for the public as a whole.
The Sun owns no stock in public
corporations. It. holds no brief for
them, but it would ask for prompt
action against them if they overstepped the privileges accorded them
by the legislature. It has no sympathy,
however, with the onslaught made
upon them by politicians and fanatics.
To destroy public utilities with
promises that can not be fulfilled
means wrecking millions of middle-
class Americans whose money is invested in these, utilities.
The bread line should be shortened,
not lengthened, and public utilities
should not become private liabilities.

New Editions of the Classics Are (On
Special Shelves.
A-re you familiar with the classics?
How many of them have you -read1;
Since so many of the better moving
•pictures being shown now are made
from the stories which have stood the
test of time, a revival of reading .of
the classics has taken place. Many
people are becoming acquainted with
these treasures for the first tirae
while others are re-reading them with
'keen enjoyment.
'To meet this demand the North
cCanton Library has designated a shelf
of classics, adding many in new edi-
£wns with pood print and paper and
with beautiful colored illustrations.
Others are in circulation in earlier
editions. "A few are listed:
Thackeray, "Vanity Fair. Reade,
FOR several months people in all
parts of the United States have
been receiving "chain letters"
asking for a dime. The postoffice department at Washington has pronounced the "chain letter" illegal; in
blunt words "a fraud." So if the
reader of this editorial does not desire
trouble with the government he or
she will ignore "chain letters." Uncle
Sam plays no favorites when he declares war on men engaged in fishing
for suckers or easy-marks.
A "sucker" is someone who, because
of his or her perfervid zeal, ignorance,
cupidity, may be approached for
money with considerable prospect of
it being extracted.
There are now in circulation many
lists of suckers each compiled by
specialists for a specific purpose and
containing only the names of persons
who are likely to take a particular
kind of bait. The firms which maintain these suckers' lists are impartial
to the motives with which they are
used. They will, for a certain sum
of money, provide a file of names"
with equal readiness to a quasi-religious organization or to the peddler
of worthless blue-sky stocks. Each
line will be different, of course, and
can be depended upon as having been
prepared from experience in the lines
required.

grees from them.
Rates High In China
In China he rates Al for his
knowledge of the internal affairs of
that tormented nation and he is consulted by the representatives of all
nations having treaty rights with
China.
Dr. Bates' parents died a number
of years ago. They were well known
writers can be supplied with appropriate lists of suckers at a moment's
notice. By far the largest business in
the buying and selling of sucker lists
is in connection with horse racing and
stocks.
All that is required is that the
person who lias exploited the names
provided shall furnish opposite them
when returned particulars of the manner in which the individuals responded
when approached. . ... . .
A modest estimate of the number
of names on the lists prepared for
this purpose is between six and seven
million.
After an interval if the flim-flam
promoters do not hear from the
sucker they write a "very personal"
letter. They repeat this half a dozen
times. If they get no reply they
reach the conclusion that the man
they thought might be a sucker isn't
willing to become a sucker, so they
take his name from their directory
or reference boot
Many people have been surprised
at some time to receive a correctly
addressed circular or letter from
stock peddlers or tipsters in a distant city. They bought a "prospect
list" from an information agency and
then they w«nt fishing for victims.
Take the advice of The Sun and
ignore such letters, whether asking
for -a dime or a hundred. In plain
words, "don't be a sucker!"

Told Without
Varnish by Ben Long
Well-Meaning Friends
TW-0 incidents in widely separated
localities .recently prove that it
is possible to carry congratulations too far. A blushing bride in
Michigan received such a barrage of
i-ice from loving friends that the
sight of one eye was destroyed. In
Texas a bridegroom hopped into his
car beside his bride to be driven to
the railroad station where the happy
couple were to embark on their honeymoon.
A well-wishing* friend threw an old
shoe. It hit the bridegroom on the
head, and instead of driving to the
station he drove into the nearest
telephone pole and in the smashup
received a broken leg.
t ■ t t
HEN it comes to giving send-offs
to newly married couples this
nation leads 'the "civilized" world.
In some countries, 'they tell me, the
guests are "a little rough at times,"
but as we call them savages we expect them to be rough.
. In this grand "arid glorious "land we
leave nothing undone to show that
we wish our :newly-weds a life of
joy. Of course a bride who has had
her eyesight 'destroyed with rice will
find difficulty in appreciating the good
intentions of "her friends.
The bridegroom who starts on his
matrimonial venture in a hospital did
not contemplate "doing so before he
got married.
However, ;they should not forget
the loving spirit in which the rice
and the oKl shoe were tendered. The
wedding guests meant well.
Which reminds me of ' the remark
made by Steve Brodie, the bridge
jumper, after he had lost a large
amount of money backing Peter
Maher to defeat "Bob "Fitzsimmons for
the championship, "God save me from
well-meaning friends."

Who Owns This Pin?,
S. K. Ramage, principal of the
grade school, North Canton, visited
The Sun office on Friday. He had a
and Harvard universities and has de
grees from them.
Rates High In China
In China he rates Al for his
knowledge of the internal affairs of
that tormented nation and he is consulted by the representatives of all
nations having treaty rights with
China.
Dr. Bates' parents died a number
of years ago. They were well known
writers can be supplied with appropriate lists of suckers at a moment's
notice. By far the largest business in
the buying and selling of sucker lists
is in connection with horse racing and
stocks.
All that is required is that the
person who lias exploited the names
provided shall furnish opposite them
when returned particulars of the manner in which the individuals responded
when approached. . ... . .
A modest estimate of the number
of names on the lists prepared for
this purpose is between six and seven
million.
After an interval if the flim-flam
promoters do not hear from the
sucker they write a "very personal"
letter. They repeat this half a dozen
times. If they get no reply they
reach the conclusion that the man
they thought might be a sucker isn't
willing to become a sucker, so they
take his name from their directory
or reference boot
Many people have been surprised
at some time to receive a correctly
addressed circular or letter from
stock peddlers or tipsters in a distant city. They bought a "prospect
list" from an information agency and
then they w«nt fishing for victims.
Take the advice of The Sun and
ignore such letters, whether asking
for -a dime or a hundred. In plain
words, "don't be a sucker!"
